The programmable CRISPR-Cas nuclease achieves genome editing by breaking double-stranded DNA at the target location, but it is very inefficient in cells after mitosis.
For the clinical application of base editing, its main limitation lies in the generation of potential non-target mutations.
On May 19, 2021, Gerald Schwank of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich and the team of Sean C.
PCSK9, mainly expressed in the liver, is a negative regulator of LDL receptors.

The contents of plasma PCSK9 and LDL decreased steadily by 95% and 58% in mice, and decreased by 32% and 14% in rhesus monkeys.
